Herriman, UT asked in Real Estate Law and Landlord - Tenant for Utah

Q: Prop Manag Co bus. license exp./agent license revoked. Can he legally sue for eviction?

He filed eviction under a new company name I have never heard of and a copy of a lease that is not our original lease. Signatures are copy and pasted. He originally filed with "Property Management" for the business name but amended it to lease company name. After I questioned having no license, he amended again with a new company name he has no association with (license is also expired). He is using an attorney.

A: If you can prove he copy and pasted the signatures, that is criminal and he could go to jail. Take the proof to the county attorney's office and make sure they know which attorney he is using. The attorney may be in trouble as well.
